Chapter 615 That Boy Can't Live.
"NUX!!"
Astaria shouted in worry.
\'NUX!!\'
His wives were the same as well.
"We are going there!"
Amaya spoke as she rushed towards Nux.
Ember, however, quickly appeared right next to her and held her hand,
"Are you out of your mind!? What are you even going to do there!?"
"I am sure I can do something much better than just staying here like a spineless bitch like you!"
Amana retorted in anger.
*Slap*
Suddenly, Evane, who was near them, slapped Amaya.
"You would nothing but bring even more trouble to him! You think Nux won\'t react when you get hurt!? You think that man wouldn\'t notice how much Nux cares for you!? What if that man decides to use you to make Nux do something that he would never do even if it cost his life!?
Would you be able to see that with your own eyes!?" Evane shouted.
"I-I would kill myself bef-"
"And as if that would make Nux feel a lot better right!?" Evane shouted again.
"You think all of us are happy knowing that we cannot help him!?" Evane questioned as she pointed at Ember.
Ember\'s eyes were red.
Lawrence, who was looking at her knew she was angry.
Not angry at Amaya, but at herself.
He had never seen this expression on the always confident Ember\'s face.
With how she was clenching her fists... and how her body was trembling…Lawrence knew she was barely holding back.
Amaya finally noticed Ember\'s expression as well.
She freed her hand, however, this time, she did not rush toward Nux.
She just stood there, cursing her own weakness and helplessness.
The other women were the same as well.
All of them lowered their heads and clenched their fists.
Even Edda, Allura, and Skyla, the ones who rarely showed this kind of emotion… all of them were the same as well.
Suddenly, a figure rushed towards the battlefield where Nux was fighting.
"Where do you think yo-"
Evane was about to shout at the figure, however, she quickly realized it was not one of her sisters.
"Who is he?"
Felberta questioned.
"That\'s Alcimus\'s disciple," Thyra answered.
"What is he trying to achieve?"
"Something all of us want to…"
"…"
"…"
All the women turned silent.
…
On the other side, just as Astaria was about to rush towards Nux to check up on him, Nawdren appeared in front of her and attacked.
Astaria used her sword to block the attack.
"He is not dead yet, don\'t worry."
"You will pay for that." Astaria glared at Nawdren and spoke in a hoarse voice.
"You seem to care a lot about that boy," Nawdren noted.
Astaria didn\'t say anything and slashed her sword at Nawdren.
"Though I must admit, he is absurdly strong for a mere King Stage Cultivator."
Nawdren commented as he glanced at Nux who was groaning in pain.
At the same time, he deflected Astaria\'s every attack using his bare hands.
Actually, it didn\'t even look like he cared much about this battle, it was as if Astaria was someone he could get rid of any time he wanted and he was just playing around and passing his time.
His eyes were fixed,
The King Stage Cultivator who is able to kill an Emperor was much more interesting to him than the so-called strongest human on this continent.
"I have decided."
Suddenly, Nawdren spoke.
Astaria, however, completely ignored his blabbering and continued to attack, her attack wasn\'t doing any damage, and Nawdren was simply parrying her attacks as if they were nothing. However, she didn\'t care.
In the end, Nawdren was still blocking her attacks, which meant her attacks posed some threats to him.
So as long as she can break through his defense, she can do something about this situation.
"That boy can\'t live."
Suddenly, Nawdren decided.
"I was thinking of keeping the two of you alive and turn you into my servants, however, keeping that boy alive is too risky, if he manages to become an Emperor, he might even have a shot at defeating me. He is a threat that I should remove."
This time, Astaria\'s expression changed.
"Don\'t even think about it." She warned.
Suddenly, the Mana around her moved, not to her arms, but to her sword and her sword shined.
Seeing Astaria\'s sword shining like that, Nawdren\'s expression changed.
He quickly jumped back and picked up the sword that fell out of Nux\'s hand and glanced at Astaria.
Astaria rushed towards him and slashed her sword,
Nawdren tried to defend her attack with the sword he picked, however, the moment Astaria\'s sword touched Nawdren\'s sword, it sliced it into two parts as if it was cutting butter and her attack continued to move towards Nawdren.
"Ugghhh!"
Nawdren was forced to move back, however, in the process, Astaria\'s sword grazed through his chest, leaving a big cut.
Nawdren jumped back again and touched his chest.
"As I thought."
Seeing the blood in his hand and the broken sword in his other hand, Nawdren\'s expression turned even solemn as he glanced at Astaria.
Astaria, however, didn\'t give him any time and rushed toward him again.
Nawdren maintained his distance, not allowing Astaria to come near him.
"Running away after talking so big? I expected better."
Astaria provoked.
"…"
Nawdren didn\'t say anything and continued to observe Astaria, or more specifically, her sword.
A few seconds later, Astaria\'s sword, which was shining started glimmering.
That was Nawdren\'s cue.
He quickly appeared near Astaria,
"I knew you couldn\'t maintain it for long.
An Emperor shouldn\'t even have the ability to manifest it in the first place."
He spoke and at the same time, he punched Astaria\'s abdomen.
"Khocckk!"
Astaria coughed out blood.
"Tsk, he was not alone.
You are an unusual monster as well.
You need to die as well."
Saying that, Nawdren grabbed Astaria by her throat and lifted her in the air.
Just as he was about to break her neck and end this once and for all,
Alcimus appeared.
"Not on my watch, you bastard!"
